The Handwriting Game

Last week I was tagged by Crystal from Crafty Ave in the Handwriting Game. I suppose I have been spending too much time inside, but I haven't gotten to it until just now. I felt really good to sit down and write on a piece of paper. I used to journal a lot, but have gotten away from it. I might have to start again. I like writing thoughts, feelings and fun stories down, to re-live later in life.

The questions are as follows:
  1. your name, your blog name
  2. your blog URL
  3. Write: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
  4. Favourite Quote
  5. Favourite Song
  6. Favourite Musical Aritst
  7. Something you say
  8. Who's handwriting would you like to see?
Here is a sample of my handwriting (it's not very straight without lines):



*I tend to  be a very good promoter of Newfoundland, and somehow it always comes up in conversation and I am always encouraging people to visit it! You should too :)
**No that's not my writing, but I forgot and just had to add it in later. :)

And the people I chose to play are:
Cait - Bake What your Momma gave You
Melanie - Tip-Toe Thirty
Sarah - Atlantic Atlantis

I finally finished my coasters, and I will be posting about them tomorrow! Check back to see how they turned out!

Through my Lens (Salvage)

A beautiful small town that was suggested to my by a woman I worked with at Gros Morne N.P. It is on a small peninsula north of Terra Nova National Park, past the community of Eastport.

How do you think they get everything out there? Boat?
Not the first I saw, but the most beautiful!

More Small Surprises

Well, yesterday I told you about the baby carrots I harvested from my vegetable garden. And as I continue to clean up the yard (which is quite large and overwhelming) I am finding more wonderful things. Since it is cool and sort of snowing today, I thought I would share some of these spring delights. I love spring flowers they are so resilient in this totally unpredictable weather!
This little guy is growing despite the snow, which is almost gone

Such a beautiful sight next to the dark earth and brown leaves

There is so much life, if you just look closely!
I have to go to work today, so there will be no playing in the garden, but I hope to get out there tomorrow! What's growing in your garden?
